This animation, created using images from the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites, shows the blaze and the aftermath of wildfires that devastated an area about 35 km Northeast of Athens, Greece, in mid-August. The images from 14 August show the fire and plume of smoke, which extends far South pushed by strong winds. Vegetation appears red in the false-colour images from 19 August, and burn scars covering an area of more than 2900 hectares appear black.
